Ok well thanks for the help. Moving it by hand is not a huge deal. I just assumed that since it was recommended to use the command in the docs that it was worth mentioning. case closed I guess. unless we want to consider the NFS error worthy of a bug report?

Indeed this is a somewhat complex subject, which is why it was somewhat
